Glamping with Mustangs and Donkeys!
Words can’t express the hospitality and love when staying here at Wild Ride! Kenzie and her husband were genuine, easy going, and sooo knowledgeable about all of their rescue horses! Kenzie trains them with a flawless method filled with intuition and true love for her horses! The accommodations were fantastic! I felt like I was in the woods at a cozy retreat in the Netherlands! We stayed on the coldest night of the year (temps in the teens) My only suggestions is bring a really warm sleeping bag bc the dome doesn’t keep the heat for very long. Highly recommend this establishment and i’ll def be back with friends in the future!

We loved camping here! It was very quiet and cozy, very relaxing. Being around the horses was super cool and we even got to watch a training demonstration. The only downsides were the shower did not work and was completely open on top (underneath the trees) and there were huge spiders in the bathrooms every night! Other than the bathrooms and showers, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Also, the domes only slept 2, 3 would be pushing it, and they are advertised as being able to accommodate 4 people.

Amazing Property
Tent · With kids ·
Had a wonderful time camping here for Father's Day. Trails were interesting, horses were beautiful, and MacKenzie was incredibly accommodating and friendly. She even took us on an unplanned tour of the southern trails and showed up acres of blueberry bushes. My daughter took everything in (at least when she wasn't napping on my back :) P.S. Bonus points for Star Trek fans -- you'll understand when you get there!

Great place for a break.
Tent camped at "primitive" site by the creek. Lovely quiet spot far from the the active areas of the property. Lovely sound of the creek running, plus birds. Probably would have had a lot more going on, animal-wise, had it been later in the season. I didn't avail myself of any of the add-ons because I am not actually a horse person. The woods are criss-crossed with former car paths, deer paths, and (potential?) horse paths, and there are plenty of deer...check yourself for ticks and consider bug spray!

MacKenzie and Jesse were the perfect hosts and the property is gorgeous. The mustangs bring an amazing charm and are a highlight of the Sterling area. We will be coming back!
